Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. John Freeman

Sourced directly from Dr. John Freeman's social posts and replies.

When is a single tooth extraction necessary, and can a damaged tooth always be saved?
Single tooth extraction is sometimes necessary if a tooth has been severely damaged by decay or infection. In some cases, root canal treatment can save a tooth, but if a tooth is too damaged to preserve, removing it and adding a prosthetic is the best choice.
Source →
What are the recommendations for oral hygiene after consuming treats?
The practice recommends brushing and flossing after enjoying treats.
Source →
What is the primary function and aesthetic goal of dental implants?
Implants are utilized to replace missing roots, provide support for artificial replacement teeth, and are designed to resemble natural teeth.
Source →
How many times do people typically undergo wisdom teeth extraction, and can a second set develop?
Most individuals undergo wisdom teeth extraction only once, but it's not impossible for some people to get them taken out twice! In rare instances, a second pair of wisdom teeth can grow and will need to be extracted.
Source →
Is a simple tooth extraction a common procedure, and what does it involve?
Yes, a simple tooth extraction is a routine procedure that is regularly practiced. During the procedure, the tooth is loosened and then easily removed.
Source →
Why are regular dental visits important, and how often are they recommended?
Regular dental visits allow for early detection of life-threatening issues including oral cancer. Patients are advised not to skip their biannual dental visits!
Source →
What are the risks of wisdom teeth erupting at odd angles, and how do I know if extraction is necessary?
Wisdom teeth that erupt at odd angles may lead to infections or cysts. The practice can assess your situation and inform you if an extraction is needed.
Source →
What should I do if there is bleeding after oral surgery, and are there alternatives to gauze?
In the event of bleeding at the treatment site, place a clean piece of gauze over the empty tooth socket(s). If gauze is unavailable, a moist tea bag can be a good alternative, as the tannins in tea can reduce or slow bleeding.
Source →
What materials are used for tooth implants, and how are they accepted by the body?
Tooth implants are composed of either titanium or zirconia. The human body accepts both as strong foundation replacements.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2024)

$516

Payments

Compared to peers

Modest

Dr. John Freeman received $516 across 2 payments in 2024. That is higher than about 56% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as compensation for services other than consulting, including serving as faculty or as a speaker at a venue other than a continuing education program, and the largest single payer was Straumann USA LLC.

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
